Daily Nourishment for August 6, 2024: Time Moves around Us and Our Kitchen Tables with Guidance from Dani Shapiro and Joy Harjo
Daily Nourishment Read Time: 40 seconds
Pause/Prompt/Practice Time: 15 minutes
"I've always wanted to write a novel that spans a significant amount of time with the same characters and really look at the way that a family or more than one family grows and changes over time," says Shapiro. "And I didn't want time to work linearly in this book. I think time moves around inside of us, when we have memories. It's like everything that's ever happened keeps on happening in a way, and I wanted to capture that." - Dani Shapiro, People magazine
